The US birthrate fell below 2.0 in 1971. Prior to that time it was dwindling. It stayed below 2.0 until 2001 when it inched back above. The climb back to above 2.0 is attributed to the high birth rate among hispanics and asians.

Did you know that there are more hispanics entering this country via the birth canal than crossing the border?

Not exactly a crises. There are European countries with numbers around 1.4. But in America, if the population starts to drop, the land will be bought by people who have higher birth rates.

Is that a good thing? If we don't assimilate them, we will become another Mexico because they will vote for the same type of people they voted for in Mexico. They will change the culture of the Southwest to the culture of a corrupt South American country. That's not the kind of "boom" that is good for this America.

I suggest that it will be easier for us to assimilate fundamentalist Christians than immigrants from South America who really don't want to be assimilated.
